Why use Niacinamide - Vitamin B3
Niacinamide – Vitamin B3 increases skin immunity, clarity and helps balance and normalise skin function.
Multi-functional
Niacinamide is a multi-functional, anti-inflammatory ingredient that helps solve many skin problems and helps improve all kinds of skin concerns from acne prone symptoms to signs of ageing. It helps restore balance and revive skin, by helping repair and strengthen the skin’s natural protective barrier. Niacinamide contains co-enzymes that are central to repairing cell damage, cell reproduction, and normal skin cell function.
Barrier protection
There’s also evidence that topical niacinamide can increase the production of ceramides (lipids that help maintain the skin’s protective barrier) thus helping delay the effects on wrinkles, fine lines, and the skin’s moisture barrier. The main function of the skin’s protective barrier (acid mantle) is to prevent potential toxins and microbes from invading the skin and preserving the skin’s moisture levels.
Skin health
This hero ingredient calms irritated skin reducing acne, balances oily skin, soothes sensitive skin and fights off the stressors that lead to breakout and premature ageing. Vitamin B3 improves skin health and is the key to glowing skin. Niacinamide increases skin clarity, even skin tone and reduces skin redness.

Note: Niacinamide is a powerful and valuable ingredient in skincare, but when used in high concentrations it may cause skin to flush. We recommend using low concentration of 3-5% in formulations. If redness or flushing occurs, it generally disappears within 20 – 60 minutes, we therefore recommend using those products in the evening, if your has a tendency to flush.
